Did you know that when you accepted Jesus as Lord over your life, that it was an all inclusive package? The package included your ticket to heaven but it also included abundant life. Abundant life includes happiness for you, right here on earth. By listening to the Word and planting good seed in your heart you get to live a life that is abundantly full to the brim til it overflows. Please note that an abundant life does not mean you will not have bad days, or misfortune or that sometimes you may make the wrong decisions, go the wrong way. Some days the road will be just a bit harder than the one from the day before. But your abundant life is grounded in that fact when trouble comes you are not alone, and you know what to do. God is with you and you can trust Him to walk you through to the conclusion of "All is Well". Therefore true happiness comes from knowing God.
